Drinking the Antifreeze............

I think the Rockets season next season will be just like the Fakers season this past season. Howard is maybe the biggest fool's gold in NBA history, and the Rox fans are oblivious to the disappointments Howard has brought for his two previous clubs.

And as far as coaches go, for how bad Mike Brown and Mike D'Antoni were, McHale is a downgrade. Phooey.

The Rox fans are currenly punch drunk over the Howard acquisition....... But I think reality will set in once the regular season starts.

The majority of them thought they hit it big by "stealing" Lin from us.....a year later and Houston is trying to trade him and his overpaid salary.

If Howard can return to his DPOY form from his Orlando years then Houston could do some damage with Harden and possibly Josh Smith. ... but personally I don't see it happening.

“The reality is James (Harden) and Dwight (Howard) want to play with Jeremy and Omer,” Morey said. “I’ve been kicked down to assistant GM. They’re going to be here.” 7/13/2013

It is amazing to me that all the time I encounter people feeling negative about Jeremy’s season with us. I have chalked this up to:– he started off slow, mostly due to getting 100% back from injury
– very high, unrealistic expectations after his time in New York
– had a rough ending in the playoffs, again due to injury
– people generally remember starts & ends more than anything else
– people generally compare things to their expectations when forming opinions versus look at the big pictureLast year was Jeremy’s 1st full year in the league. Essentially his rookie year. If last season would have been his rookie year and he never would have played in New York, right now people would be appropriately talking about him incessantly as one of the top young rookie stars in the league. He was the starting point guard on a playoff team in West at age 24!!! Don’t get me started on this. Too late …
